I kept going back and forth on whether I was going to upvote this. The idea of the world's oceans turning into a giant reflection of a bulldog was so weird that I almost upvoted on that alone. And then I hit the Experiment Log, which in addition to being generally unnecessary had a lolfoundation moment so bad that I could almost hear the screech of tires as I read.

No one is going to use the term "dickbaggery" in a professional document. Especially not a Professor.

You'll want to wait until you get other feedback, but I would remove the log and do a once-over for tone issues and other cleanup. As it is, I can't upvote.

I'll definitely tone it down if people think it's over-the-top, though I'm sure I've seen worse :( Was that the lolfoundation moment, or the execution of contaminated D-class/removal of contaminated body parts from staff? I did ask about that over on the forums but was told it wasn't out of line.

A couple of people on the forums and here have now suggested removing the experiment log. I thought it was characterful and helped suspension of disbelief by exploring how they had established 1552-1's known traits. However, I'm definitely game for removing it if people think it works better without:

Experiment-1 is probably unneeded, though it does counter fridge logic re why just the eyes are affected.
Experiment-2 is spelt out in the article, so could probably stand this or the reference in the article removing.
Experiment-3 is again establishing why researchers know something in the main article; could go if this wasn't a big deal
Experiment-4 explains the rationale for several containment measures but is mostly addressed in Addendum-01.
Experiment-5 explains the rationale for painting solid 1552-1 pieces black, but again; maybe it could be removed?
Experiment-6's main appeal is an overblown rant which has been criticised here for tone. Maybe a more subtle version could be inserted into the main entry?

I'm of the opinion that the experiment log doesn't add anything- there's nothing really counterintuitive to the concept that needs to be addressed in it. However, YMMV on whether you want to keep it. The part that I'm absolutely sure of is that the professor's commentary needs to be cut out posthaste. There's no reason at all to include incompetent behavior on the part of the Foundation and someone ranting about it in language that's lifted out of an internet forum.

I've nuked the whole experiment log and moved the relevant bits (basically just the new restrictions on liquids near 1552) into the main article. Unfortunately I moved the rant over as well (with the obvious tweak as suggested). Is there any way we can preserve the reveal of the human outcome of the incident in a way that doesn't come across as OOC?

I may have missed discussions on the issue, and I am just one user, so if you get shit about it you should change it back. However, as a whole, though I'm not sure if it needs to be in there, it's much better. I'm going to give it an upvote, but I would suggest continuing to work on it as you get more feedback.

Very creative idea. I think it needs a little more work. For instance, the bit about using the -1's to monitor the site felt like it should be in the containment procedures or an addendum, rather than the description. I like this, though.

That played a significantly larger role in my rambling first draft, but I toned it back :( They're not actually using it yet as a lot of security issues would have to be worked out; at present all but a handful of the -1s are covered in paint and in secure storage. My original 'how to use it' idea:

Experiments are currently under way to determine the ‘speed’ at which the footage is broadcast to SCP-1552-1; if it exceeds lightspeed, it may be possible to employ SCP-1552 as an early warning system in case of the facility coming under attack or sustaining a containment breach (further research will be needed to determine whether such a warning would violate causality).

Regardless of this, SCP-1552-1 remains an important crisis management tool for Sector-25; although it appears impossible to impose a surface between SCP-1552-1’s ‘camera’ and SCP-1552’s face, SCP-1552’s head does not normally fill the whole image broadcast to SCP-1552-1 and useful text-based information could be readily broadcast from behind the animal (the optimum point being behind SCP-1552’s shoulders). Contingency plans have been drafted to dispatch samples of SCP-1552-1 to all other Foundation facilities; at present it appears the broadcast capacity of SCP-1552 is one-way, but should Sector-25 suffer a major incident that precludes contact with other facilities by conventional means, SCP-1552 could provide invaluable, as thus far the feed shown on SCP-1552-1 has shown itself to be completely unblockable with no range limitation.

Thanks - I hadn't actually put that at the time, though :) I've now added most of the above (minus the stuff about the footage being faster than light; I think the concept's complex enough without getting time-travel involved) as a paragraph on its own just before the addenda - tried it out in Addendum 02 or as a new addendum, but it looks odd (especially that this would be suggested after the other addenda which have basically been discovering that 1552 is a pain in the ass security-wise).

Thanks - any idea how they could be improved? There's just one capital-i Incident per se at the minute, though they did revise containment procedures significantly after learning that liquids can become 1552-1.

After consultation with O5-██ the decision was made to remove Agent ███ 's eyes. The surgeon was able to successfully complete the procedure via a webcam mechanical remove and Agent ███ will receive full compensation.

:( It's a replacement for a hyperbolic rant that was deemed OOC. Would a staff member be allowed to continue his regular duties after partial conversion into an SCP? I can't see he would be allowed home after that, especially given the 'footage of 1552 after containment is now also footage of a Foundation facility' thing. Open to suggestions as to how it might be improved, though I think the Eye Scream is justifiable.

Thanks! That could well be a future development for the article, as by all accounts he's just a regular mutt; bulldogs don't live that long either. I had thrown in some hints that 1552-1 might be somewhat autonomous and that Tarquin dying could result in some interesting consequences. Right now the facility is keeping him alive on the basis that 1552-1 is predictable when he's conscious and in good health.
